We are pleased to announce a new stable release of the 'gschem and Friends'
Electronic Design Suite, part of the GPL Electronic Design Automation
project.  The gEDA/gaf suite (this package) provides schematic capture,
netlisting, bill of materials generation, and many other features.

gEDA/gaf version 1.8.0 contains many important enhancements and bug
fixes, and we encourage distributions to pick up the new version as soon
as possible.

Release Highlights
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

* gEDA is now compatible with Guile 2.x (recommended).

* A greatly expanded Scheme API has been added to gEDA/gaf for use by
  extension authors.  See the `geda-scheme' Info manual for more
  details.  Existing extensions may need to be modified to load the
  `(geda deprecated)' or `(gschem deprecated)' modules.

* The `component-library-search' function for `gafrc' files now skips
  directories without symbols, and searches for libraries recursively.

* `gschem' supports keybindings with more than one modifier key.
  Keystrokes may use extended modifiers (Super, Hyper and Meta), and key
  bindings can be modified in any rc file or interactively using the
  `global-set-key' function.

* `gschem' now displays help files and component documentation on all
  platforms, including Windows.=20

* `gsch2pcb' correctly handles footprint names containing hyphens (`-').

* Greatly improved error reporting in almost all tools, including
  improved detection of syntax errors in schematic files and
  configuration problems.
